No, Madara was before the 1st and second. So the odds are he was the initial inventor.Well Madara knew how to release himself from the Edo Tensei (?) and afaik either the first or the second hokage was the initial inventor of that jutsu... soooooo... shouldn't he/they be able to do the same?
What? No he wasn't.No, Madara was before the 1st and second. So the odds are he was the initial inventor.
No, it was explained. Itachi after defeating Kabuto used genjutsu to force Kabuto to reveal the hand seals needed to cancel it and then had him execute the release. Once this occurred, everyone summoned regained complete autonomy of their actions as they turned to dust. It was only at this moment that Madara could use the Edo Tensei technique on himself and cancel the contract with Kabuto (presumably making himself the summoner of himself). The 2nd Hokage never had that opportunity because he was sealed before Orochimaru released control.Well supposedly the 2nd was the one who invented edo tensei so if that's true, he of all people should be able to break the jutsu just like Madara. But he was summoned early on in the series in the fight against the third. Sooooo yea that's a gaping plot-hole if no explanation is offered.
Your explanation makes sense, but I don't see how that page explains this. I'll take your word for it.Im pretty sure Madara explained it allready. You have to cast a particular jutsu right as the Edo Tensei is being ended. Thats why Madara couldnt break free earlier, only after the Edo Tensei was released could he truly be "free".
Edit -- Yep found it, you can release the summoning contract when the spell is released.![]()
You forgot the part where he hits Sauske with a chair first.As for Oro, nothing would make me happier than to see him turn face by having the opportunity to destroy Konoha but saves it instead. What I really want to hear is what the third has to say about seeing Orochimaru giving him a double thumbs up.
It's not just that page, its also from Kabuto describing his control over the Edo Tensei individuals (Ch. 513, 532, 582) and Itachi (and other resurrected ninjas) describing what's occurring when its released (Ch. 589). Combine those three, and the implication is what I wrote above.Your explanation makes sense, but I don't see how that page explains this. I'll take your word for it.
The half of the 9-Tails chakra that got sealed was not his "evil" half. That half is just the "spiritual" portion of chakra while the remaining "physical" half is what remained (hence why Naruto can make trees grow while in Kyuubi mode).I couldn't tell what Oro was doing in this chapter but I knew what he wanted to do. Now you've got four giant Chekov's guns in the scene and if you're going to jump the death shark you may as well jump the death-god shark.
Whether Naruto is going to get the evil side of the 9tails is up in the air. I could see it going either way. They've seemingly retconned the fox so hard that I wouldn't be surprised if they retconned the evil side of him. I also wouldn't be surprised if they just made him semi-evil but more powerful again, or a torn character. Either way it doesn't matter because this story is ending soon.
As for Oro, nothing would make me happier than to see him turn face by having the opportunity to destroy Konoha but saves it instead. What I really want to hear is what the third has to say about seeing Orochimaru giving him a double thumbs up.
